Tubuai
Tubuai is the largest island in the archipelago and serves as the main hub for public and economic services for the entire group. The island's reef is scattered with fine motus, coral, and volcanic rocks, while its huge lagoon, which is nearly twice the size of the island itself, offers 33 sq. mi. (85 km²) of pure aquatic fun. The mild climate also makes Tubuai and the surrounding islands ideal for farming, with fields of lilies grown for export that can be seen stretching as far as the eye can see.
The island's stunning beauty has been noted by explorers for centuries. In the late 19th century, explorers Wallis and Cook were struck by the lush vegetation and crystal-clear water surrounding Tubuai. Despite the large barrier reef around the coast that made it seem unsuitable for good anchorage, this disadvantage turned into an incredible advantage in the eyes of the famous mutineers of the HMS Bounty. Led by Christian Fletcher, they built Fort George on Tubuai, which still exists today and is a must-visit attraction for visitors to the island.
Tubuai's natural beauty, abundant aquatic activities, and rich cultural history make it a must-see destination for travelers to the area. Whether you're looking to explore the island's stunning landscapes, learn about local history and culture, or simply relax and enjoy the island's mild climate, Tubuai has something for everyone.

What our customers say
My travel partner and myself have just returned from our trip to Switzerland ( May 2024 ) and wanted to put in writing our utmost gratitude to Katelyn Mulgrew and the team from Entire Travel Group for the professional, prompt and extensive service provided from start to finish. Kate was there with us every step of the way and answered any question or concern we had in a patient and understandable way, which left us with reassurance and confidence. Switzerland Grand Tour was amazing with picture postcard scenery at every turn. Every aspect of the booking was flawless, from the hotels, transportation and documentation it all worked seamlessly. Hotels were comfortable, central, welcoming and contained everything a traveller could need. Train travel throughout Switzerland is the only way to go, you just get on sit down and relax while enjoying the ever changing and spectacular scenery. I have, and, will be recommending Entire Travel Group to all my friends for any of their travel needs and, will definately be using them as my go to company for any future adventures. Thank you again to Kate and the team for helping us tick this item off our bucket list.
My husband and I just returned from the most amazing trip that Zoe Condon compiled for us. Everything was perfect. From first enquiry to trip complete, Zoe was always available to answer questions big or small and offer helpful knowledgeable tips. If you are looking to visit Canada do yourself a favour and ask Zoe, her knowledge is 2nd to none. I look forward to dealing with both Zoe and Entire Travel Group for future holidays.
My wife & I recently returned from a once in a lifetime experience to Canada. We were so fortunate & blessed that Zoe Condon was such a truely wonderful Travel advisor to make our journey so very special. We undertook the “Winter Views & Colourful Hues” and can only describe it as a Magical Winter Wonderland experience. Everyday was full of amazing experiences & adventures that will remain in our memory & hearts forever. As for Zoe, what an incredible asset she is for the Entire Travel Group. She is so caring, helpful, patient & always so professional in delivering “top shelf”customer service. We can never thank & praise Zoe enough……so grateful & Canada blew us away. 🇨🇦❤️ Special mention also for Zoe’s compassion & concern in helping us during a family grief period.
Lisa organised for our family a perfect trip to Rangiroa. We stayed in a beautiful overwater bungalow and pool villa for our teenagers. We were impressed by Lisa's knowledge of French Polynesia and the connecting flights from Australia. Would highly recommend!
